El 7 de abril de 1719 murió Juan Bautista de La Salle, fundador de los Hermanos de las Escuelas Cristianas, actualmente la congregación de hermanos educadores más numerosa, implantada en todos los continentes.

Figura desconcertante y paradójica en muchos aspectos, nació en 1651, en medio de la aristocracia que controlaba a...

El lector no tiene entre las manos la biografía de Solón Wilches, que en estas páginas se va desgranando como un lazarillo que nos conduce a lo largo de la narración y nos sirve de guía en su transcurso, dándonos además continuadas referencias que nos ubican en el tiempo y el espacio. Este libro nos muestra que, más que decisiones espontáneas que podrían parecernos son las que estructuran estas historias familiares enlazadas, son en cambio la naturaleza y la entidad de las negociaciones urdidas...

La historia de Colombia desde su independencia difiere poco de las de sus hermanas latinoamericanas: distribución inequitativa de la tierra, grandes comunidades relegadas a la exclusión, caudillismo, violencia y, en los últimos tiempos, narcotráfico y una actividad guerrillera que lleva cuatro décadas de acción. El logro de este libro es que su autor inserta la ocurrencia y duración del fenómeno guerrillero en las coordenadas históricas colombianas, excediendo lo militar y echando luz sobre...

Hiob, der leidende Gerechte, wurde in der Weltliteratur zum Symbol für das Rätsel des Bösen. Literaten, Theologen und Philosophen haben sich von dieser Gestalt immer wieder anregen lassen und nach Antworten gesucht. Diese sind so zahlreich wie die Leser des Buches. Jedoch bleibt jede hinter dem, was Hiob erdulden musste, hinter seiner Klage, seiner Anklage und seinem Schweigen zurück. Eine Antwort auf das Theodizeeproblem gibt es nicht. Einfühlsam, klug und in feiner Sprachform sagt Rüdiger Lux...

This is not a book of dates. It does not abound in statistics. It avoids controversies of the past and prophecies of the future. The motive is to present in plain, newspaper style a narrative of the rise and progress of St. Louis to the fourth place among American cities. To personal factors rather than to general causes is credited the high position which the community has attained. Men and women, more than location and events, have made St. Louis the Fourth City. The site chosen was fortunate....
